Were you able to launch from the harbor?

nicely done!  Good looking fish!

Texas is a bit far for me.  Otherwise sounds like it would be fun.

Bushy is probably too shy to tell you all this story, but one time I met up with him for a pre-dawn fishing trip to look for steelhead.  It was a cold and somewhat miserable morning, but we were both determined to get a good spot and stake our claim before anyone else showed up.  Anyway,  we met up at his place and hopped in his old truck.  Drove up into the mountains to the pull off above the fishing hole.  When he pulled over into the shoulder and killed his lights I couldnt believe how freakin dark it was.  Like one of those times where you couldnt see your own hand in front of your face.  We grabbed the gear out of the back of his truck and put on our headlamps and started the hike down to the river.  The ground was wet and brutally slippery.  I remember we both kept falling and sliding down the mountain.  After some doing we got down to the river bed and did our best to scope out the best spots in the dark.  I was maybe 40 feet away from him when he started yelling.  I couldnt make out what he was saying and because it was so dark it took me a minute to find him with my headlamp.  When I spotted him it looked like he was moving really fast,  like,  not human fast.  He kept yelling.  I ran over to him and that is when I noticed that his feet were not moving.  he seemed to be getting dragged along.  It was freakin scary.  I did not know what to do, so I tackled him around the ankles.  I then started pulling his leg,  just like I am pulling yours now.   No but,  I do believe in UFO's.  I think it makes perfect sense that we are not alone.

Nice post.

I wonder how many of you bleed your catches in sharky areas. 

I try not to think about sharks, but when I watch all that blood go pumping out of the fish into the ocean, I cant help but think that I could be attracting unwanted attention.

nice!

nice man!  I may copy this.

so hectic.  Sorry man.
